>From solid on this issue a few years ago: Hi, The problem you are facing is because in Solaris 8, the libauth.so.1 and libauth.so files have been replaced with libpam.so and libpam.so.1. The worked around for this problem is to create symbolic links with the names of the old files, but which point to the ones included in solaris 8 . - The command to create a link is ln. See manual entry for more info. - Libraries libpam.so and libpam.so.1 should be found at /usr/lib/ - If the link can't be created at /usr/lib/ (no permissions etc.) use setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<directory> to indicate where to look for libraries. regards Vishnu -- Joe Slagel Geospiza, Inc. 3411 Thorndyke Ave, Seattle WA 98119 (206) 633-4403 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
